Frequently Asked Questions for DJs
Below are some commonly asked questions and answersWill you personally be the DJ at my event?
When you book with Pifemaster Productions, you book your event with Robert, you plan your event with Robert and on the date of the event, Robert will be the DJ at your event. Often times, at other DJ companies, the person you speak with when you inquire about DJ service, is not the actual person who will be performing at your event. This is very common among large agencies. It is absolutely paramount that you have an opportunity to speak in person with the specific DJ that you will be working with and determine if they are the right fit.
Do you perform for more than 1 event per day?
Some DJs will book as many events as possible, and often times they will try to book multiple events on the same day. If a DJ has already performed at an event prior to your event, they will likely be physically exhausted by the latter half of your event. At Pifemaster Productions we only book 1 event per day. This not only allows us to give you our 100% undivided attention, it also allows you the ability to extend the length of your event (right up until 5 minutes before we are scheduled to stop) and know that we will always be available to continue.
Are you insured?
Will my DJ act as the master of ceremonies?
What music will my DJ bring to my event?
At Pifemaster Productions we currently have over 50,000 song titles in our music library, and we add over 250 new song titles each and every month. Our music library spans over 8 decades, so regardless of the type of music you would like to hear, we will be able to satisfy your needs. However, in the unlikely event that we do not have a song that you would like to hear at your event, all you need to do is indicate the song on the planning worksheets and we will obtain any requests that we don’t already have, at no additional charge.
Do you take requests from our guests?
Can we submit a DO NOT PLAY list?
Will you purchase music requests that are not already available?
Absolutely, music is our business, and with over 50,000 song titles currently available, the chances are that we already have your request. But in the unlikely event we would not, we will be more than happy to purchase it without any additional charge to you.
How will my DJ be dressed?
Can you provide crowd participation activities?
Do you take breaks?
What types of parties do you specialize in?
What type of DJ equipment do you provide?
Do you bring backup equipment with you to our event?
Will I have a written contract?
All too often, we hear horror stories about clients that spend thousands of dollars on a wedding, only to hire a DJ without a written contract. If your DJ is not willing to provide you with a written commitment, then tell them ‘No Thanks’. At Pifemaster Productions, we are fully licensed, insured and will ALWAYS provide you with a written contract.
